Fatul Accident at Ceutralla.
TheCentralia coliery was the scene of a
terrific boiler explosion late Tuesday
night. People residing in the vicinity
were thrown from their beds by the shock.
It was subsquently learned that two of
a nest of eight boilers at the Centralia
colliery, now owned by the Lehigh Val
ley Coal Company, had exploded, demol
ishing the boiler house and instantly
killing Michael Rubeck and fatally in
juring Anthony Zornski.
The men were-engaged in taking out
ashes from under the boilers at the time
of the explosion and received its entire
force. Rubeck was found under a sec
tion of one of the boilers, his body torn
and scalded in a terrible manner. Zorn
ski was found about fifty feet away from
the boilers, having been thrown there
by the force of the explosion, lie was
| yet alive, but his body was badly
mangled and scalded, and he died shortly
after reaching the Miners' hospital at
Ashland.
The mule which was hitched to the
cart into which tho two unfortunate
men were shoveling the ashes was al
most buried in a bank of coal in front
of the boilers, while tho cart was re
duced to splinters. Two large stacks
were thrown over and the boiler house
was wrecked.
Three Mishaps at n Colliery.
William Davis, of Birvanton, was
knocked down by a car on the slope at
No. 5, Jeddo, on Tuesday morning and
the car passed over one of his legs, in
juring it severely. He was engaged in
oiling pulleys on the slope, and while so
doing his lamp caught tire. After he
extinguished the blaze he was left in
darkness and heard,,a car descending.
Stepping to tho opposite track to avoid
it, he placed himself directly in front of
an ascending car and mot with the acci
dent stated above.
In tho afternoon tho hoisting rope
broke on the main slope and a loaded
car dashed to the bottom, doing consid
erable damago to rails and timber in
its descent.
Later in the day the air compressor
used in tin; new rock tunnel at the
colliery broke down and work in the
tunnel had to cease. It will require
several days to place tho compressor in
working order again.
Silk Mill liotiilM Soon Ready.

of tho bonds was taken Tuesday evening.
Let there be no unnecessary delay in
the matter, so work can begin with the
first signs of spring.
Damage Suit* Quickly Settled.
Luzerne county broke the record on
Tuesday for a quick decision in a civil
suit for damges. On that day three
suits for #lO,OOO each wore commenced
against the Pennsylvania Coal Company
by the families of McDonald, Youngand
Roils, the throe men killed by a boiler ex
plosion at Avoca some, time ago. Tho
arbitrator found for the plaintiffs in the
sum of #1,050 in each case, the defendant
also to pay the cost. Tho decision also
holds good in the case of John T. Blew,
who was injured in tho explosion, and
who sued for a like amount.
This was a very rapid disposal of the
case, It being decided within twenty-four
hours after the suits were entered. Some
times suits of this nature consume years
in going from one court to another.
Thought It Hud Mlftsed.
Dominic Gallagher had his right leg
broken and narrowly escaped more sori
ous injuries at. No. 2 Highland colliery
yesterday afternoon. He was engaged
in firing a blast, hut it missed lire three
times. As he was returning to examine
the charge the fourth time the blast
went oIT, and the coal caught him about
the legs. Had he been much closer his
injuries would probably be moro severe.
He was taken to his homo on the Hill,
where physicians dressed tho broken leg
and other cuts about tho hodv. and in
tho evening ho was taken to llazleton
hospital.
Duvyea I'nstor Itoturns.
Rev. J. Miller Morris, pastor of the
First Baptist church at Duryea, who
disappeared about four weeks ago, leav
ing all in darkness as to whereabouts,
returned homo on Saturday. He says
he went away to visit relatives, as he
needed a rest. Further than this he has
given no explanation as to his absence.
His wife has been living in the home
since her return home from Bingliamton,
whore she visited, about two weeks ago.

A FATAL SHOOTING.
Two EneniloM Mot While Drunk and One
Wu* Shot Dead.
The second murder in Duryea, near
Pittston, within four days, occurred on
Saturday night, when Michael Walsh
was killed by Dennis Conn iff. The
other murder occurred on Thursday,
when William Ushuusky was beaten to
death by several of his countrymen.
Saturday was pay day in Duryea and
vicinity, and Michael Walsh was in a
saloon kept by Thomas Joyce. Dennis
Conniff had been there also and left the
saloon, but came back for a pall of beer.
Bad blood has existed between the two
men for some time. In the midst of a
game of pool Walsh entered from tin
bar room. Conniff attempted to make a
play on the table, but failed, and Walsh
ridiculed it. Tho latter promptly re
sen ted It, and Walsh made for Conniff.
As Walsh made It-lungo at Conniff the
latter retreated a stop, whipped out a
revolver and fired. Walsh, with one
hand pressed to hfs heart, fell against
tho wall, then stumbled through the
open door to the middle of the street,
where he fell dead. Tho bullet went in
near the heart.
Conniff went to his father-in-law, Josh
Wynn, who lives in Duryea also, and
after telling what he had done he went
to Pittston and gave himself up to Con
stable Bennett, lie was placed in the
lockup over night, and then taken to
the county jail.
Michael Walsh, tho murdered man.
was 38 years of age, and Is survived b\
a wife and three children, as also his
mother. Conniff, the murderer, is 22
years old, and was recently married.
SPORTING SPRAYS.
The prospective pugilistic encounter
between McCodden, of tho Heights, and
"Scaldy llill" Quiun, of llazleton, was
satisfactorily arranged in this city Mon
day night. The "go" will ho for #2OO a
side and will be pulled off at Freeland
on March 24, although the exact spot
where the fray will take place has not
yet been made known. McCadden will <
he trained by Jimmy Mitchell, of Phila
delphia, and is hacked by J. D. Rey
nolds and several other prominent sports
of this city. Quinn has a number of en
thusiastic admirers and backers in
llazleton, foremost among which is a
well known sporting man named Eames.
He will be trained by a llazleton man.
All the arrangements have been com
pleted for the light and much specula
tion is rife as to which man will come
out on top. Already considerable bet
ting is being done and" It is probable a
largo amount of money will change
hands. It is said that McCadden has
improved wonderfully in the manly art
during the last few months.— Wilkesbarre
Times.
John Honor, of Lansford, sends the
following! "I do hereby challenge Peter
Mahcr to light to a finish Marquis of
Queonsberry rules, for from #2O to #2,000
a side, and the best purse obtainable.
Mr. Mahcr will remember ino as the
man who nearly defeated him in four
rounds at Tamaqua, on the night of Oc
tober—, 181)5. If Mr. Maher is on for
any more contests, he will please recog
nize this challenge. John Holier." This
is very loud talk on the part of Honor,
who does not post any money to show
that he can make good his boasting. A
few hundred dollars put up as a forfeit
would impress sporting men more than
a dozen letters like Honor's. It would
seem, considering Boner's record, that
ho Is flying very high. There are a
dozen hoavy and u\iddle-weights who
could give Honor an argument before he
tackles Maher. — Phtta. Record.
"Maid of Huto," a Ilarrisburg dog,
took the lirst throe prizes at the New
York dog show, and its owner has been
offered #2,500 for tho animal by two
parties, Cissy Fitzgerald, tho actress,
and J. Pierpont Morgan, the banker.
It was not enough.

fused a writ of quo warranto against I
tho Cambria Iron Company, which was
charged by several citizens of Johns-1
town witii conducting a company store,

the Pennsylvania TraQic Company. All
the allegations were specifically den e i
by the company, which says that it lias
no interests in tho stqro in question or
any company store. The attorney gen
eral says lie is but following tho practice '
of the department in refusing a writ!
when no case lias been made out. This
case was taken us a test of tho company
store law. and its failure to secure a ;
trial is regretted by the opponents of
tho company store system.

AN INDIAN TERROR,
Record of Apacho Kid, tho Scourgo
of tho Southwest.
A Career of Crime ami Hloodthirstlnosa
That HUH NO Equal In the History
of This Country—Acts of a
Red Fiend.
Tlio Apache Kid is what they call the
Indian outlaw whose name has a fas
cination, a terror for every dweller
upon the southwestern border of Ari
zona and New Mexico. Its mention
will make the most daring* frontiers
man Hnsp his weapon with a firmer
grip. It will send children trembling
to their mothers from their play.
The person who thus terrorizes this
wild region, where ordinary crimes
pass current, is a renegade Apache In
dian, with all the devilish ingenuity
of thai fiendish race. His Indian name
is Es-ki-bi-Nadel, and he is under 30
years of age. He was educated at the
Hampton Indian school, from which he
was sent to the government reserva
tion at San Carlos, where he was
trained by a scout for the regular
army. His natural aptitude soon made
him familiar with the military tactics
and the mode of scrutiny and fighting
of the United States troops. Hut
neither education nor association with
white men could repress the savagery
of his nature, and he incited an out
break among the Indians on the reser
vation and set lire to the schoolhouse.
This olTense was promptly punished
by the nrrest of the Kid and seven of
his followers. On the 2d of November,
1889, while they were being conveyed
to jail in a stage coach by the sheriff
and his posse, they broke their bonds
near lllverside, A. T., killed the sheriffs
and escaped to the Sierra Madre moun- j
tains, iu the province of Sonora, Mex., ]
just over the line from Arizona and !
New Mexico.
That was the beginning 1 of a career
of crirac that has 110 parallel in Indian
atrocity. Secure in these arid moun
tains, whose every approach is guard
ed by u barrier of nature formidable
and awful, with trackless mazes of
desert sand hills, and having' only at
great distances water holes and
patches of cultivation —here the Kid's
band has been constantly increased by
disaffected Indians from the reserva
tions and from Mexico. They have
raided the border and penetrated far
into the interior, leaving a trail of
blood behind them. They are even
now destroying the homes of ranch
men, waylaying travelers along the
desert roads, ambushing gold seekers
in the arid hills, picking off cowboys
011 their lonely ranges, stealing into
settlements in the stiilmss of night,
plundering and killing the sleeping in
habitants, until huudreds of people
have met death by the hand of the
Apache Kid and his band during the
past four years.
Though a reward of $3,000 by the
governor of Arizona and $2,000 by the
governor of New Mexico have been
plnced upon his head and repented ex
]>editions of government troops have
been sent out for his capture, he has
thus far eluded puisuit, ranging over
a vast extent of country, comprising
thousands of square miles, where no
white n nil enn follow for lack of water.
The Kid does not by anj' means eon
fine himself to forays and murderous
outrages. lie lias a passion for steal
ing gir l ? for wives. His first achieve
ment in this line was the capture of
Jo-ash ny, an Apache maiden, whotn
he took from the door of her wickiup
on the Snn Carlos reservation in Sep
tember, 1890. He n°xt secured the
mild-faced Natlieth-lny, who was but
13 years old. He canie upon the girl
and her mother at Cibicu crossing of
tlie Salt river on the reservation, May
17, 1892. lie killed the mother and
made captive the daughter, but re
leased iter shortly after and she re
turned to the reservation. Ilis third
victim was Nah-tah-go-yah, the daugh
ter of Tndian Scout Jack Long. She
was forcibly taken by the Kid from the
reservation October 25, 1892. While
he was engaged in this abduction his
first wife, Jo-nsh-ay, escaped from his
camp and made her way to the reser
vation ".lone. She has since acted as
guide for tho troops in pursuit of the
Kid. It was through her that Jack
Long effected the rescue of his daug
ter.
Tho most notable expedition hither
to led 'igainst the Kid was in 1892 by
Lieut. Williams, of Fort Whipple, near
Prescott, Arizona, lie took a detach
ment ard 13 Apache scouts, keen-scent
ed as bloodhounds. They struck the
trail of the Kid and followed him for
weeks, sometimes ramping in the
evening where he had camped the pre
vious night; till the trail led farther
and farther into the arid region on the
south, where they were compelled to
abandon their quest, not being per
mitted to cross the Mexican border
into tho fastnesses where he sought
refuge.— lloston Traveler.
